With the help of a trained professional, life challenges can become easier to deal with. During the therapeutic process, I will work with the tools you already have in order to tackle life's problems. I will listen empathetically and help you uncover those strengths you thought you lost through your life challenges."

With nearly 30 years experience, I am committed to the highest standards in comprehensive mental health care. I work with individuals and couples to help heal depression, relieve anxiety, reduce stress, improve relationships, process grief and loss, and navigate painful or challenging life transitions."

Feelings are unpredictable and irrational. It is no wonder relationships, especially with those most important to us, can be so hard."
